Choose the clubs and kit for the sessions you have booked. Start with a workable set and a fitting check, then use your first few rounds or lessons to identify what else you need.
Choose a first set
- Affordable beginner sets — compare three researched packages, count the actual clubs and allow for the rest of your first-month budget.
- Strata 12-piece versus Fazer CTR25 — look more closely at the wedge provision, fit and package contents before choosing between them.
- Golf sets for senior players — compare package specifications and whether a smaller upgrade would address the need.
Check the specification before ordering
- Club length and fitting checks — understand what a seller means by standard length and what to record from a fitting.
- Buying left-handed golf clubs — check the exact hand, shaft and model instead of relying on a search-result label.
Plan the rest of the first session
- What to wear when starting golf — check the venue’s requirements, try the clothes you own and identify a specific missing item.
- Choosing golf shoes — compare fit, weather needs and the upkeep of different outsoles.
Once you can collect useful shots, build your own club-distance record. For later maintenance, use the grip and fitting guides.
